.DISCUSSION...Good to excellent mixing conditions can be expected
today as a storm system crossing the area brings unsettled weather.
Mixing conditions will decrease tomorrow through the end of the week
as cooler air settles into the area tomorrow, followed by an
increasingly stable airmass as high pressure builds in.
